A teacher returns to his hometown where he starts teaching again at the local school; he is given a "special" class: three of his students, who died under a train, instead terrorize students and teachers at school. It will be up to the teacher himself, who has a score to settle with the three, to get rid of them once and for all. Yet another film based on one of King's countless stories. Mediocre the direction, mediocre the actors, and mediocre the screenplay: in short, avoidable even because it lacks gruesome scenes. Suitable only for the most die-hard fans of the American writer.
